the WSK North American Series by CKI, the staff of Championship Karting
International program has arranged a motor rental program through a host
of the sport's top engine builders and suppliers. Looking to make it
easier for competitors to attend a series event and receive the support

"Several of the engine suppliers have been fixtures at the CKI events
throughout the past year," stated CKI's Director of Operations Kevin
Williams. "Always looking to be at the front of the pack, several of the
actual builders themselves attend our events to ensure their customers
are taken care of and running well."

"We feel that there was an interest in the motor rental programs at
CKI and we look to work with the series to fill it," express Magnum
Racing Engines Erik Bartelero. "If we make it easier for drivers to rent
packages, we will be able to increase the participation at all events.
We are looking at this program by the numbers and really feel that we
will be able to help the sport."

"CKI is the elite of North American Karters and to have your motors
win at these events is something special," expressed P1 Engines' Jesus
